It is unclear whether continuous infusion or intermittent bolus injection of propofol is better for achieving adequate sedation during a standard upper endoscopy. The study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of continuous infusion and intermittent bolus injection of Propofol (Diprivan) during a standard upper endoscopy. In this prospective study, patients will be randomly assigned to undergo a standard upper endoscopy with either continuous infusion (CI group) or intermittent bolus injection (BI group) of Propofol (Diprivan) administered by an anesthesiologist. The primary outcome will be to assess the quality of sedation by the endoscopist (VAS). In addition to other sedation-related parameters that will include sedation induction time (minutes), total dose of propofol (mg), recovery time (minutes) using Aldrete score, any involuntary patient movement, and adverse events.
Study objective: Comparing the efficacy of three different preoxygenation strategies, i.e. non-rebreather face mask (NRM), bag-valve-mask (BVM) with and BVM without additional positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in three subgroups of spontaneously breathing volunteers. Study endpoints Primary Endpoint: Difference in expiratory oxygen concentration (FeO2) at the end of the 3 min preoxygenation sessions. Secondary endpoints: - Difference in Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) at the end of the 3 min preoxygenation sessions. - Changes in regional ventilation from baseline to 1.5 min and 3 min into the preoxygenation sessions, assessed using electrical impedance tomography (EIT) - Time to reaching an Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) ≥ 0.5 - Time to reaching an Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) =1 - Time to Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi) back to baseline after the 3 min preoxygenation sessions. Number of participants 15 participants per subgroup, i.e. 45 participants in total. Inclusion criteria - Normal-weight adults (body mass index, BMI 18.5-24.9 kg/m2) with an "American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status Classification System (ASA) " score of I or II - Adults with a BMI 25-39.9 kg/m2 with and ASA score <3 - Healthy (ASA I) children aged 6-12 years Exclusion criteria ASA 3, Age < 6 and age 12-18, pregnant women, missing informed consent, signs and symptoms of an acute respiratory illness on the study day. After informed consent and a medical check-up, baseline measurements will be done for 10 minutes (peripheral oxygen saturation SpO2, ORI, regional ventilation). Then the participants will undergo 3 different preoxygenation sessions with the 3 interfaces (i.e. non-rebreather facemask with reservoir and a bag-valve-mask with and without PEEP) in a randomized order and a 20 min washout between the sessions. Each preoxygenation session is conducted in a supine position and will be proceeded until the measured FeO2 (end expiratory O2 fraction) reaches 90% or up to a maximum time of 3 min. Afterwards 10 min of SpO2, ORI and regional ventilation measurements will follow.
Objective To prospectively determine the median effective dose (ED50) of propofol for inhibiting a response to laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion when combined with different doses of esketamine in female patients. Methods Fifty-eight female patients (aged 20-60, ASAⅠ-Ⅱ) scheduled for elective hysteroscopy were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups, one administered 0.2 mg/kg of esketamine (K1 group, n = 28) and the other 0.3 mg/kg of esketamine (K2 group, n = 30). The two groups received the corresponding doses of esketamine intravenously, followed by an intravenous injection of propofol (injection time was 30 s). The initial dose of propofol was 2 mg/kg, and the dose ratio of propofol in the adjacent patients was 0.9. If there was a positive reaction to LMA insertion, the dose ratio in the next patient was increased by one gradient, and if not, the dose ratio was decreased by one gradient. The median effective dose (ED50), 95% effective dose (ED95) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) of propofol for inhibiting a response to LMA insertion in the two esketamine groups were calculated using a probit analysis.
The aim of this research would be to determine the efficacy and effects of preoxygenation when performed by the patient (mask held by the patient). This is the concept of "self-preoxygenation".
This study aimed to understand how ready Zimbabwe's public hospitals are to perform essential surgeries, which are critical for treating a wide range of health issues from emergencies like car accidents to planned procedures such as childbirth by caesarean section. The researchers looked at hospitals across Zimbabwe to see what kind of surgery facilities, equipment, and specialists were available.
This research trial will measure how useful Aprepitant is in preventing nausea and vomiting in children having surgery to correct scoliosis (curvature of the spine).
Controlled ventilation is applied to patients intubated for general anesthesia. Additionally, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and pressure support are mechanical ventilation modes that have been used in general anesthesia practice for many years. When the recovery-extubation phase is reached, intermittent bag-mask ventilation is usually used and the patient is allowed to breathe spontaneously and is extubated when an adequate respiratory level is reached. It has been shown in previous studies that the use of intermittent mask ventilation causes postoperative atelectasis. Different methods have been used to prevent postoperative atelectasis. In our study, we aimed to observe the effect of terminating general anesthesia at the end of the operation and using PEEP and pressure-supported ventilation during the extubation phase on early complications.
Opioid free anesthesia (OFA) means a technique in which no intraoperative opioid is administered through any route. Perioperative pain management in an obese patient is challenging. The incidence of respiratory depression is higher in obese patients and is exaggerated with opioids, so the investigators are searching for a drug that has analgesic effect without any effect on respiratory function. In this study, the investigators will add melatonin to OFA in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The goal of this observational study is to explore the variability of the concentration at the effect site (Ce) of propofol to reach deep anesthesia (DA) during induction of general anesthesia in adults. The investigators hypothesized that there is a great variability in this Ce that could be precisely explained by - Electroencephalographic (EEG) features available prior to induction of anesthesia - Cognitive performance - Patients characteristics Participants will undergo preoperative cognitive testing and awake EEG. Then, induction of general anesthesia will be performed using continuous infusion of propofol. The Ce at which Deep anesthesia is observed will be recorded.
